Its like when I went to WWI and the "big" and "surprise" announcement was Diablo III, yet the first thing you saw when you were approaching the venue was a huge diablo on the wall.... | ||

mmm looks like a female ghost suit put on on the purified sarah version you can see when you beat the campaign, such a spoiler to rage about *pokes the strange people* just enjoy artworks or don't look at them if you dislike them ^.^, thinking its a spoiler is just funny | ||

At first I thought it was for the new Titan game but realised when there where Diablo, warcraft but no Starcraft and recognised the Zergy hair and ghost suit. Still it at least confirms a HOTS announcement of some kind. Not a fan of the new look though I must say but whatever I play for multiplayer more than single it's just a bonus for me. | ||

While the artwork itself isn't very good(pose doesn't look natural, "hair" does not look at all like how it did in the ending cinematic for WoL or when she was infested), the design isn't very good either. Blizzard seems to be forgetting that, shock and surprise, soldiers wear ARMOR. When she was infested, they could afford to have her outfit be form-fitting because it was an exoskeleton, but every ghost in the series has at least had some actual armor. What she has now is basically a TRON suit made of spandex. I have to find it really frustrating that Blizzard is subscribing to the idea that every female character needs to be so blatantly sexy, which is in pretty stark contrast to their female characters in SC1/Warcraft 1-3. Hopefully Selendis will get some more screen time and be the badass female SC2 hasn't had so far. >_> On a side note, where the hell did the orange come from? She had orange eyes when infested(in SC2 anyway), sure, but the Artifact's pulse was blue, her psionic abilities have always been a light blue... I guess they got it from Char? Maybe? | ||

I guess Blizzard agrees. =/ I'll withhold full judgement until I see how she is as a character, but I'm guessing she'll be Raynor's love interest first, fanservice second, and former Queen Bitch of the Universe third. | ||

I'll put my reply in spoilers, for those who don't want to know. + Show Spoiler + From what i've read and seen, the campaign is going to focus on Kerrigan getting control back over the swarm, since from what we've seen in WoL, the death of Kerrigan allows the hybrids to take over the zerg. It stands to reason that without Kerrigan as the leader, the hybrids will still have the ability to take them over. That is atleast what I got out of the campaign and various spoilers online The pic is very well drawn, not exactly what I see as Kerrigan, but it's well drawn. It is essentially fan art, though drawn by a blizz employee. It could simply be a way to make Kerrigan recognizable. The hair and eyes show it is her, wearing a ghost/spectre outfit. She could have been the infested, but the story puts her as "deinfested" at this time, so it could just be that. | ||

Characters like Raynor and Tychus had such detailed countenances, while all the females like that unimportant doctor, Kerrigan, Nova all looked alike, with plastic faces and lifeless eyes. So I don't really have faith that this cartoon concept will have a better outcome in HotS. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + That pretty boy son of Mengsk? By the time I got to the reveal I didn't care. It would of been more a much more effective revelation if the news stories talked about the "wayward son' a little bit. Choices between 2 ghosts? One character wasn't even developed. And in the end we never hear about the consequences of the choices in story mode. Only decent choice was the scientist and protoss eradicator fleet and even that wasn't followed up on. Blizzard could of just added some text screens in the end for each of the possible choices and it would of made the story much better and cost less than 10 frames of Raynor pretending he's a deep character by drinking. Sorry for the text, but I am a really big fan of the original single player campaign and the story it told. I was really disappointed with SC2 missions and hope they do better now that the game and engine are both mature. Sometimes less is more blizzard. | ||

It's not surprising though. You have to come to expect it from the internet. I liked the campaign, and I really like the deinfestation idea in general. Its execution was a little meh, but the overall idea is really cool. I think a lot of people are upset with it because they wanted Jimmy to run up to Kerrigan and then go "Kerrigan, I love you" and then for her to smash his face in and split his body in half while laughing and then take over the universe. The Starcraft Brood War ending was absolutely terrible. "Kerrigan wins... The End" and yet its campaign was loved everywhere... why? I think it is probably based in some sort of fetish for strong infested alien women dominating the universe or something. So if you deinfest Kerrigan AND stop her from taking over the universe and killing everyone, then it is like a double blow to those kind of people, hence the rage. | ||

but noooooo, we have the "knight in shinig armor routine" (if kerrigan called the situation like this, don't remember) And what with the Protoss? Do the Terrans have more courage than the Protoss? Kinda strange that the protoss don't care for their safrifices. So why hadn't the Zerg any consequences? why didn't arrive a massive protoss fleet upon char? is the fleet of the Terrans bigger, or do the Protoss just don't care about Kerrigan (okay, she killed so many protoss that thy would have to care, but Blizzard scrapped that) So, with Raynor beeing dead and the Invasion beeing stopped, Kerrigan is physically weak now and a massive Protoss fleet is approaching upon Char to take an end to this mess. In the Zerg campaign, you have Kerrigan, first escaping fromChar, loosing the Planet and gathering the Zerg that didn't manage to return to Char while the Invasion. The time is running out, because the little Groups of zerg are mindless now and will be killed, so you have to be fast and take control over them all, before they'll be wiped out. Of course, the Protoss are following her and Mengsk don't knows, if Kerrigan was dead or deinfested. So, now some spoiler, because it's has something to do with the leaked ending + Show Spoiler + Somehow, kerrigan mutates in the end of the Campaign to the Queen of blades back again and invades with a small number korhal. now, she alone has to infiltrate Mengsk builing and kill him personally. The mission is succesfull, mengsk is dead. (he hadn't the device he used in the end of hots and raynor was dead, so Kerrigan kills him alone)THe majority of the zerg is dead, the dominion has fallen and the protoss are still following her. in legacy of the void, the darkvoice comes to orhal to, meeting the protoss and a battle starts, the fleet loses against the swarm of the darkvoice, Kerrigan escapes again, nobody knows where she is now. in lotv you have to find a way to kill the Darkvoice, so you need Kerrigan again (yes i know, kerigan is always needed ---> zeratul said, only she can kill the darkvoice) so the protoss have to gather thier forces and need to find/ally with kerrigan to stop the darkvoice and blah, tired of posting now. Don't think you would like to have something similar in hots/lotv, but i just hate the ending of wol Sorry for the massive amount of misspelling. | ||

(/off topic) I guess this Kerrigan pic confirms you'll be playing as Zerg in HOTS but a zerg force that is controlled by Raynor's forces via Kerrigan. That's what it says to me anyway. | ||

I think the biggest problem with SC2s story is that the overmind allready died and with him dying kerrigan got the lead and in my opinion just sucks;). So having the Overmind die was a great end for SC1 but a terrible thing for if you want to continue the SC story;). Just my opinion. | ||

No, but serious I like the concept It's a good one and I have hopes for Heart of the Swarm. I think Kerrigan will remain in control of atleast parts of the swarm. But I think the "Queens" will be the new masters of the Zerg. Maybe more factions within the Zerg again.... Or maybe the idea is to evolve Zerg into something the "Darkmind" can't control and only a "free" Kerrigan can do that? | ||

The face doesn't look right either, the nose or something... It just doesn't look like kerrigan. Pretty disappointed... Hope they work on the concept a bit more. | ||

What mistery? We all say what happened to Kerrigan at the end of WoL. And since HotS will follow the Zerg point of view it makes sense that they show a glimpse of the main character. Were you expecting an Overlord as key image to HotS? Pooping flying creatures don't sell games. Kerringan does....^^ | ||

I would hope Blizzard isn't that transparent, of course, but a simple prediction for the new story would be that the Terran start trying to use Kerrigan as their pet Overmind (again), which Kerrigan initially goes along with but decides at some point to break off into her own independent faction, neither allied with the main Zerg Swarm or the Terrans, but willing to work with them to fight off the Return of the Xel'Naga. In this case you'd still be fighting Terran and Protoss (who'll be looking to eliminate all those tainted by the Zerg, including Kerrigan), which would make sense in a Zerg storyline. What I'm more curious about, though, is who will be leading the remnants of the old Zerg swarm now that Kerrigan is gone. Given that you'll probably play as a Cerebrant, you'll either by under the new controller of the old swarm or Kerrigan's break-off swarm, possibly even both as in the old BW. Course, I'm hoping for more twists than that. | ||

The ending of Kerrigan taking over the universe was radical and it seems many people don't think it was addressed properly in the sequel. "Bad endings" are pretty standard in Blizzard games, possibly due to planned follow-ups. In Warcraft I, the canon ending was that the Orcs (the evil side in Warcraft I) took over Azeroth. This is so that Warcraft II can start with Lordaeron under siege by the Orcs. In Warcraft III, the canon ending (ie TFT, the last Warcraft III installment) was that Arthas becomes the Lich King and begins his campaign to scourge the world. This is so that World of Warcraft can start with Arthas threatening the world. In Diablo I, the canon ending was that the "hero" kills Diablo but then becomes possessed by him, leading to the resurrection of the Three Evils. This is so that Diablo II can start with Diablo and his brothers returning to the world. In BW, the canon ending of Kerrigan becoming the Queen of Blades set the stage for SC 2. The BW ending parallels Arthas becoming the Lich King in TFT, and both are redressed in the follow-ups, with Arthas being slain in WoW: WOTLK and Kerrigan being defeated and deinfested in SC 2: WOL. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + No, the kerrigan in the leaked ending looked like the standard queen of blades in wol... spikes, her wings and shit The "big" spoiler in this pic is (the most people don't care :D) is that she wears terran ghost armor. nothing special but it has a story behind it ![]() There are a few possibilities why the kerri has terran armor. 1. she doesn't want to run around naked 2. she "feels" like a terran again, her body isn't infested (as it was in the end of wol) and it remained this way, so she's "living" among terrans and did not return to the swarm 3. Kerrigan doesn't give a fuck - why don't run in ghost armor among zerglings and overlords? And how can Kerrigan live as a human again? she killed more than 8 billion people, everyone will try to kill her (because they think that de-infested kerrigan is no longer able to make fire on her hands, crushing battlecruisers etc.) | ||

It just feels like they got away from that in WoL and WC3. | ||

You find out that "there must always be a Lich King" to control the Scourge and so after Arthas dies, someone took his place and the Scourge continues. The newest expansion to WoW, Cataclysm, goes down an entirely different storyline altogether, which presumably Blizzard will also do in the Protoss campaign. | ||

Sad... So much less sexy than either of the old kerrigans, IMO. That's only a concept art dood. That doesn't mean that is her true look. Concepts are usually modified, because they're subjective. Looks cool, managed to keep her psionic powers I see, poor Raynor :D | ||

- The Terrans will reject her... - The Zerg needs a Leader... - The Protoss will hunt and/or protect her... So it will probably be, that she uses some remaining zergs from char, and tries to build up her army again... Raynor will help her, but she'll get hunted down until she saves some people... Later there will be a fight against the protoss, to test her skills, that she'll be the one defending against the hybrids... So the Protoss will see her as a messias... The last part of the campaign will be the fall of Arcturus Mengsk... There can be many possibilities, with separate endings or even complete separate storylines... And the story goes on as the most people votes which ending is the most successful... It won't be the same kind of campaign as in WoL, that's something stated long ago... | ||

I'd be dissapointed if HotS was all pansy playing nice with the terran/protoss. the zerg as some patsies of raynor/zeratul or w/e would be extremely dissapointing. I guess what I'm getting at is in SC1 you played VERY different sides of the conflict, I don't want SC2 to be completely consumed by a bunch of working together to beat the dark voice crap. | ||

And then make her lines horribly cringe-worthy, like so many things in WoL. They're doing things in the opposite of the original game: improve the graphics into something fantastic, but make the character dialogue clunky and cheesy. It's just the way things are; as long as you don't have high expectations, you will enjoy the single player for what it is, and be less critical of what it isn't. | ||

She cant be the full Queen of Blades like the beginning... She has to climb her way back up, starting with zerglings, roaches, hyds... Later with banelings, mutalisks and corrupters... In the end with brood lords and ultralisks... Depending on the flow of the game... The more she reaches tier3 units, the more she gets her old zerg look back... Maybe we can upgrade her in the Hatchery/Lair/Hive, like we could upgrade the terran Units ;D I'd love to do that ^^ Welcome back Kerrigan ♥ | ||

Blizzard rarely work with rigidly fixed conceptual plan, they try things and keep changing them (eg: the story with Tychus). They also use artistic work from independent non-emplyoees, when they like it, and those artists simply played the previous game and iterated their impression on that basis. Not all art that Blizz promotes is precisely in line with the actual game art, sometimes it's just inspired by it.Show nested quote + What?

We have to hope, that HotS show us the Kerrigan we think of... Maybe it gets explained how she became to what she is now... Maybe all is going according to her plans... Lets hope guys ^^ | ||

I'd keep the faith though guys, they're unlikely to make the main character in the next expansion unattractive. | ||

Then time healed some of his wounds and made him forget the rage. And then when he found out he can have her back as human (human Kerrigan was not guilty for Fenix death) he went for it. I got no clue why is this rather simple concept so hard to understand to people. | ||

then... i actually liked here and was pretty happy with her and thout it would be nice to have her in the game like this but BAAAAAM, the coverage needs to destroy everything... kerrigan looks ugly again (everything together: looks like a man, short hair(wtf?) not the cool glowing eyes etc) and if i will like her actual version... blizzard will someday put a far more worse version of her ingame :D | ||

These last few comments make me wonder about humanity! Lol yeah, the world is a scary place. Which is why they turned a hideous mutation into a "sexy" mutation in WoL. Weird, weird stuff lol Anything to help sell i guess! | ||

I'm not even going to brace myself for the inevitable mentally-handicapped storyline that will ensue in the following edition to the SC2 series, because I want to be fully blown-away by how much effort Blizzard is putting into make the story face-palm-worthy. | ||

And the kerrigan on this picture doesnt look like the ingame kerrigan at all I must say. I prefer the ingame version by a large margin. | ||
